Jerry Wong, MD graduated from the University of Alberta, Canada in 1973. Prior to specializing in hair restoration surgery Dr. Wong had years of experience in general and emergency medicine, anesthetics, and surgery.

Dr. Wong now dedicates his time solely to hair transplant surgery, and has nine years of experience. He is a diplomat of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery and is an active member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgeons.

Dr. Wong developed the lateral slit technique to improve hair direction, angle and coverage. Recently he also developed an instrument to cut incisional blades, which allows him to precisely match recipient slit size to varying sizes of follicular units, thus achieving greater density.

By combining his surgical skills and artistic talent Dr. Wong is able to produce natural looking hair transplants for his patients.

Here I present a UK patient that had transplant surgey at Hasson & Wong. This patient lives in my home town and is known to me personally so I was able to visit his home to provide a 1 year update on his 4467 graft surgery with Dr Wong.

The patient who is in his forties wished to get the hairstyle back that he used to wear through his twenties and thirties, whilst he realised that it was never going to be possible to return him to his twenties in terms of density he now feels that he has the hair that he had over 10 years ago and is able to style it into the quiff that he always wore before it got too thin to do so.

He also never realised just how little hair he had on his crown until he took photos for a consultation. The patient is very happy with his result and is very pleased he went through with his surgery as he was able to get the full coverage in one session with Dr Wong.

In this hair transplant video interview, Coalition hair restoration physician Dr. Jerry Wong discusses the advantages of today's ultra refined follicular unit hair transplantation and the high quality work he and Dr. Hasson perform at their clinic.

Dr. Jerry Wong discusses the challenges of and how he continues to make improvements each year to his surgical hair restoration technique.

Below is a transcript of the hair transplant video for your reference.

"I think performing hair transplant surgery is perfect for a guy with a perfection streak. it's like trying to grow the perfect lawn. I'll never get there, but what's happening is, we're making strides every year. I find it extremely challenging and I try to get just a little bit better every time."

Below is a transcript of the hair transplantation video for your reference.

"I think it's extremely important. When patients come in, they're told right from the start, especially Norwood 6 patients, that they're going to need X amount of grafts. We don't say that we're going to do this and make it look better. We try to give them the overall picture of what it's going to take to achieve the final result. The other thing about patient education is that when a patient comes in, you show them photographs that look really nice, but a lot of times they want to see these patients who had it done and actually talk to these people, and actually go see them, to see what their results look like in person. People who want to do that and have the opportunity to do that, we luckily have patients who are happy to talk to potential clients."

Dr. Jerry Wong discusses how the Hair Transplant Network has helped Dr Wong's practice and cultivated a number of educated patients for him and his clinic.

Below is a transcript of the hair transplant video for your reference.

"I don't really have the figures on hand at the moment, but it would be safe to guess, 10 to 15% of the patients are from the net. And I'd say the Hair Transplant Network has done a tremendous job for us. It really has."

Dr. Jerry Wong discusses the advantages of today's dense and natural looking hair transplants and how they differ from the old school hair plugs people have been concerned about for years.

Below is a transcript of the hair restoration video for your reference.

"I get that comment back all the time. It looks so good that they don't believe it's a hair transplant. That's pretty much the number one concern. People coming in, they've seen the old work before and they have no idea what we're capable of performing these days. Naturalness and density are two issues and are key in people's minds. So when I come in, I really can't address the density issue because everyone's expectation is a little bit different and the density and result we get from hair transplant depends entirely on the quality of the donor hair. But in terms of naturalness, we get really close. We get really close."

Below is a transcript of the hair transplant video for your reference.

"I think what they should do is get educated, check out as many resources as possible, check hair surgeons and their locality and more importantly, before they decide on getting it done, actually see some people who've had it done, with similar type of hair loss and see what it's like in person. Have a look and then see and decide whether or not hair transplant surgery is right for them."

Below is a transcript of the hair transplant video for your reference.

"It's hard for me to comment on the FUE procedure because I really haven't done enough of it to have a personal opinion about it. But I think for people who have a bit of temple recession and they don't need more than 500 or 600 grafts, its' an extremely good procedure. But most people we see, the number of grafts they need are 4000, 5000, and 6000 grafts. The strip procedure is so efficient and the hair we lose is such a minimal amount. But follicular unit extraction (FUE), I really don't know what the damage rate is. How many follicles do we lose actually to get 10 good ones, I really don't know that. But, I'll find that out in the next few months and see, in my hands, what the numbers are. If I think the efficiency is even close to what strip is, I might have some meaningful comment on it later."

Below is a transcript of the hair restoration video for your reference.

"It's been pretty amazing. It really makes people change the way they think. Once their hair is back, even the look in their eyes change. it's fascinating. It is extremely gratifying. I think this one American what I did, very nicely - I asked what do you think? He said he was tickled pink. So it's been very rewarding and I've been very fortunate that this just kind of fell together and I had the opportunity to do this."

Dr. Jerry Wong discusses how gratifying it is to be recognized not only by his hair restoration physician peers, but his hair transplant patients.

Below is a transcript of the hair restoration video for your reference.

"I think it's very gratifying to be recognized by your peers but it's a real kicker to be recognized by your patients. I think that's far more important. What we like to do is keep posting pictures so people can actually see and develop realistic expectations about what this hair restoration procedure is all about."

Below is a transcript of the hair transplant video for your reference.

"The internet is a wonderful resource to get a really rounded look at the hair transplant industry, not just one surgeon, but all of them. Check everybody out. Find someone that you're comfortable with, that matches, what you like to achieve and run with it. But you've got to do your research and you've got to talk to people."

Below is a transcript of the hair transplantation video for your reference.

"My background is general practice. I had a friend who was into hair transplants in the city I practice in. And he introduced me. I found that when I got into it back in the early 90s, things were changing. It was moving from the bigger graft to the smaller graft. When I first looked at hair transplants, I thought what was the big deal, you know? But when I actually looked into it, it's microscopic surgery. I was fascinated by it. I looked at it, and the work gradually got finer and finer and more detail. Yeah, I love doing it."

Dr. Jerry Wong shares a story of a real patient and how surgical hair restoration changed his life.

Below is a transcript of the hair restoration video for your reference.

"I don't tell the story often, but one of the technicians that works with me, we did her boyfriend. Actually, we changed his look so dramatically that he started attracting other women. That's a dramatic change, so I have to be careful what I do."

Below is a transcript of the hair transplant video for your reference.

"In this particular practice, it's been really really helpful. Thanks to the Hair Transplant Network, we have a chance to reach not only the patients in Canada, but to reach people in the states, in Europe and all over the world. It's done wonders for us, it really has."

It is possible to transplant hair in between and around your existing hair however, it depends on how much hair you still have. If you have thick hair it may not be such a good idea because some of the hair that you have will be damaged from the hair restoration procedure.
